89% of people worldwide want stronger climate action. Yet politicians consistently believe the opposite. They mistake the loudest objections for the majority, and it’s one of the biggest reasons climate policy keeps stalling.

2025 is on track to be the UK’s hottest year on record. Again. Four of the last five years now sit among the hottest ever measured. This isn’t random or surprising. This is the result of broken climate promises and fossil fuel expansion.

The Paris agreement proved that when countries are pushed, the system can shift. Clean energy surged, and even the biggest economies began to change course. We saw that change is possible. But rich countries are still dragging their feet and breaking promises.

SHOCKING 🚨: Rosebank's majority owner, Equinor, made almost $30 billion last year - and paid zero tax to the UK. This is exactly how the fossil fuel industry works. Communities and the climate are treated as expendable, while profit is protected at all costs.

Student campaigners made this happen! 🎉 This year, the rising tide of Fossil Free Careers campaigns secured commitments from 8 universities to stop platforming some of the most deadly and destructive industries on the planet. This is what student power looks like! 💪

This is not just bad weather, this is the cost of political cowardice. Storm Bram is about to slam the UK with 80 to 90 mph winds and flooding on already soaked ground. Homes, transport, power all at risk again. The solution couldn't be clearer. We must end new oil and gas.

A coalition of Shetland groups have told Keir Starmer to reject Rosebank. They see the emissions, the spill risk, the damage to protected seas, and they know there will be no real benefit for local communities. Starmer now has a choice - back communities or corporate profits.

WATCH: @climatechoirs.bsky.social flashmob at lighting of Norwegian Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square Norway's gift to the UK this year comes with strings attached - they are pressuring the UK to sign off on the mega-polluting Rosebank oil field. #StopRosebank

HUGE WIN 🎉: The UK is pulling $1.15 billion from Total’s Mozambique LNG project, a destructive fossil fuel expansion we should never have funded.

Over 1,200 people have been killed by floods in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand & Malaysia. Children lost homes, schools & any sense of safety overnight. This should be front page news. The climate crisis is killing people now & leaders still refuse to treat it like an emergency

BREAKING 🚨: Scientists just delivered a stark emergency warning to the UK. In an unprecedented Westminster briefing, experts laid out the risks posed to our economy, health, food systems and national security from the impacts of climate breakdown. The time to act is now.

BREAKING 🚨: The government has just announced that they are ending new oil and gas exploration in the UK and have started a plan for workers and communities to transition away from fossil fuels. 🧵

SHOCKING 🚨: The UK just had its worst wildfire year on record. 47,000 hectares burned while firefighters were drafted from across the country to supplement under resourced local crews. A safe future starts with funding the people on the frontline.

NEW 🚨: Two of the biggest climate villains of our time have teamed up to pull off what could be a £1.3 billion tax dodge. Shell and Equinor are forming a new joint venture, Adura, which will be the new owner of the Rosebank oil field 👇 actionnetwork.org/letters/disr...

NEW: Protesters gathered outside Holyrood demanding the Scottish Government finally oppose Rosebank. More than 250 organisations from Amnesty to the Church of Scotland have warned that the project would deepen climate breakdown and benefit corporations, not communities.

BREAKING 🚨: campaigners halt felling of iconic Trafalgar Square UK-Norway Christmas Tree. Norway's gift to the UK this year comes with strings attached - they are pressuring the UK to sign off on the mega-polluting Rosebank oil field. #StopRosebank

SHOCKING FACT: Rosebank co-owner Ithaca Energy has made £3 BILLION in profit since the energy crisis began. They’re raking it in, while the effects of climate change worsen here and around the world, and millions struggle with their energy bills. Their profit, our loss.

Are you a member of a trade union? Trade unionists are calling on the Labour government to do the right thing by the planet, UK communities and workers, and refuse approval for the climate-wrecking Rosebank oil field. Sign the open letter 👇 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Health leaders: "Granting access to exploit Rosebank would fly in the face of the Gov’s ambition to shift our health service from sickness to prevention, save our NHS budget, drive growth in the green economy & address climate change at pace and scale." ukhealthalliance.org/news-item/he...

SHOCKING 🚨: Energy giants raked in £125 billion in UK profits while millions struggled to afford to heat their homes. Five years of crisis for households and five years of soaring profit for the companies driving fuel poverty.

BREAKING 🚨: COP30 is flooded with 1,600 fossil fuel lobbyists. One in every 25 people inside the climate talks is working for the industry that caused this crisis. They outnumber almost every country, including those losing lives to storms, drought and heat.

BREAKING 🚨: We are watching governments steer us toward 2.6C of heating, a future where the Amazon shifts toward savannah, ice sheets deteriorate and lethal heat becomes part of daily life. They know exactly what this means and still fund fossil fuels.

Two billion people live within 5 km of fossil fuel projects. They breathe toxic air, drink polluted water, and watch their land and health destroyed. This isn’t progress. It’s destruction with a PR team.

Two of the world’s richest polluters are scheming to pay less tax and drill more oil. While families across the UK struggle with bills, Shell and Equinor are joining forces on 'Adura', a new venture which will drain the public purse and fuel the climate crisis.

BREAKING 🚨: Over 68,000 people are being driven from their homes every single day by floods, drought, and heat they didn’t cause. Entire communities erased while world leaders debate our lives. This isn’t a crisis, it’s violence, and it's happening right now.

“Does the First Minister agree with Nicola Sturgeon that [approving the Rosebank oil field] would be the greatest act of environmental vandalism in our lifetime?” Scottish Greens co-leader puts @johnswinney.bsky.social in the hot seat 🔥

BREAKING 🚨: @zackpolanski.bsky.social has joined 250+ organisations calling on Keir Starmer to reject the controversial Rosebank oil field. Rosebank is a defining test of this government’s credibility on climate change. They must reject this disaster project.

BREAKING🚨: BP announced £1.7 billion in profit just days after Jamaica was hit by the strongest hurricane in its history. They’re cutting billions from renewables and doubling down on oil and gas. The same company that calls itself “Beyond Petroleum” is cashing in on destruction.

BREAKING 🚨: Rosebank's owner Equinor is joining forces with Shell on a new North Sea venture ‘Adura’ that could see Shell dodge £1.3 billion in UK tax. While families struggle to heat their homes, polluters keep cashing in.

Exxon turned climate change denialism into a global campaign. They funded right wing think tanks across Latin America to spread climate denial and sabotage global climate talks. Exxon knew about the climate crisis since the 70s and still chose profit over truth.

Over half a million Jamaicans are without power and 15,000 are in shelters after Hurricane Melissa tore through the island. A nation amongst those least responsible for the climate crisis is bearing its weight. This is the cost of fossil fuel greed and it’s time they pay up.

Last year, wildfires killed 154,000 people. Extreme heat and drought pushed 123 million into hunger. We need a world where this is unthinkable, where every person has food, safety and a home.

SHOCKING🚨: America’s richest 0.1% are fuelling the crisis at 4,000 times the rate of the world’s poorest. The same billionaires who profit from pollution are the ones blocking action. It’s time to hold them accountable and fight for a liveable planet.

BREAKING 🚨: Rosebank owner Equinor has just reported £4.7 billion in profit from the past 3 months. While millions struggle with soaring energy bills, and climate impacts worsen across the globe, oil giants like Equinor continue to profit by keeping us hooked on oil and gas.

Hurricane Melissa has left homes underwater, families displaced and lives lost across the Caribbean. At least six people are dead and hundreds of homes destroyed as Jamaica braces for the strongest storm in its history. This is heartbreaking.

The facts are clear. Rosebank would help oil giants, not working people or the planet. We deserve clean, affordable energy that works for everyone Tell Starmer to back renewables and reject Rosebank👇 actionnetwork.org/forms/the-government-wants-to-hear-from-you-on-equinors-application-for-rosebank

The Scottish Affairs Committee's report on North Sea policy is absolutely right to conclude that, in recent years, there has been a disastrous failure to plan for job losses at Grangemouth and in North Sea oil & gas. But its findings are unfortunately already out of date. More detail in the 🧵:

GOOD NEWS 🎉: A French court has ruled that oil giant TotalEnergies misled the public about its climate promises. @greenpeace.fr and @amisdelaterre.org took the company to court for greenwashing and won. It is the first ruling of its kind against a fossil fuel giant in France!

BREAKING 🚨: Philippines survivors of Typhoon Odette are taking Shell to court in the UK. Shell is accused of fueling the climate crisis that made the typhoon more destructive, killing over 400 people and displacing more than 3 million across the country.

BREAKING 🚨: Green Party leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social has demanded the government block plans to drill Rosebank Speaking at @fossilfreeldn.bsky.social #StopRosebank demo on Saturday, he said projects like Rosebank make “multi-millionaires and billionaires richer” while communities pay the price

🚨SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn is being urged to oppose the Rosebank oil field in solidarity with Palestine. If approved, Rosebank could send £250 million to Delek Group, an Israeli fuel conglomerate flagged by the UN for operating in illegal settlements in Palestine.

BREAKING 🚨: Equinor has admitted the Rosebank oil field would result in 249 million tonnes of CO2. That's more than the combined annual emissions of Ireland, Belgium and Greece. But Equinor says that's not their problem. They profit, everyone else pays the price.

BREAKING🚨: @Equinor has resubmitted its application to open the biggest undeveloped oil field in the UK - Rosebank. In the next weeks, the UK gov will decide to reject or approve this disaster project. Equinor hasn’t given up, and neither will we. We’re stepping things up.

Millions more homes across Britain face devastating floods. Some towns may have to be abandoned entirely as climate breakdown hits. This is the cost of opening new oil fields like Rosebank instead of funding real climate solutions. We can’t keep fuelling this crisis.

BREAKING 🚨: The planet has crossed its first catastrophic climate tipping point. Scientists warn that warm-water coral reefs are now in long-term decline, threatening the homes, food security and livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people.

BREAKING 🚨: The world’s 250 largest oil & gas companies own 1.5% of global renewable power capacity. Despite years of climate pledges, new research shows their real investment in clean energy remains tiny compared to fossil fuels. Oil giants are NOT serious about the transition.

Nigel Farage is courting UK's richest man, Jim Ratcliffe, the Ineos boss who called clean energy targets “absurd.” Ratcliffe’s empire has shut refineries, cut jobs, & blamed climate policy for it all. Farage wants him onside. That says everything about where Reform UK is heading.

GOOD NEWS 🎉: For the first time in history, renewables have overtaken coal as the world’s biggest source of electricity. Solar and wind met 100% of new global electricity demand in the first half of 2025 and even helped cut coal and gas use.

While the Tory party's energy & climate policy grows increasingly detached from reality, worth reflecting on a remarkable, under-reported event at Labour conference: the launch of Climate Jobs UK, a campaign by GMB, Prospect & other TUs focused on the creation of good jobs in the energy transition 🧵
